We show that if $X$ is an arc-like continuum which can be represented as an inverse limit of a simplicial inverse system on arcs, then for every point $x \in X$ there is a plane embedding of $X$ in which $x$ is accessible. This answers a…

We study the problem of Nadler and Quinn from 1972, which asks whether, given an arc-like continuum $X$ and a point $x \in X$, there exists an embedding of $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ for which $x$ is an accessible point. We develop the notion of…

We show that if $f\colon I\to I$ is piecewise monotone, post-critically finite, and locally eventually onto, then for every point $x\in X=\underleftarrow{\lim}(I,f)$ there exists a planar embedding of $X$ such that $x$ is accessible. In…

We show that if $X$ is an arc-like continuum, then any continuum which is the union of $X$ and a ray $R$ such that $X \cap R = \emptyset$ and $\overline{R} \setminus R \subseteq X$ can be embedded in the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$. Further, we…

We consider the problem of finding embeddings of arc-like continua in the plane for which each point in a given subset is accessible. We establish that, under certain conditions on an inverse system of arcs, there exists a plane embedding…

We prove that for a chainable continuum $X$ and every non-zigzag $x\in X$ there exists a planar embedding $\phi:X\to \phi(X)\subset\mathbb R^2$ such that $\phi(x)$ is accessible, partially answering the question of Nadler and Quinn from…

A topological space is locally equiconnected if there exists a neighborhood $U$ of the diagonal in $X\times X$ and a continuous map $\lambda:U\times[0,1]\to X$ such that $\lambda(x,y,0)=x$, $\lambda(x,y,1)=y$ et $\lambda(x,x,t)=x$ for…

We show that a plane continuum X is indecomposable iff X has a sequence (U_n) of not necessarily distinct complementary domains satisfying what we call the double-pass condition: If one draws an open arc A_n in each U_n whose ends limit…

Nandakumar asked whether there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise non-congruent triangles of equal area and equal perimeter. Here a weaker result is obtained: there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise non-congruent triangles of equal…

For a disk $D$ in the plane $\mathbb R^2$ and a plane map $f$, we give several conditions on the restriction of $f$ to the boundary $\partial D$ of $D$ which imply the existence of a fixed point of $f$ in some specified domain in $D$. These…

It is known that every homeomorphism of the plane has a fixed point in a non-separating, invariant subcontinuum. Easy examples show that a branched covering map of the plane can be periodic point free. In this paper we show that any…

Three themes of general topology: quotient spaces; absolute retracts; and inverse limits - are reapproached here in the setting of metrizable uniform spaces, with an eye to applications in geometric and algebraic topology. The results…

The square-peg problem asks if every Jordan curve in the plane has four points which are the vertices of a square. The problem is open for continuous Jordan curves, but it has been resolved for various regularity classes of curves between…

We present proofs of basic results, including those developed by Harold Bell, for the plane fixed point problem: does every map of a non-separating plane continuum have a fixed point? Some of these results had been announced much earlier by…

In this paper, we contribute toward a classification of two-variable polynomials by classifying (up to an automorphism of $C^2$) polynomials whose Newton polygon is either a triangle or a line segment. Our classification has several…

Anusic, Bruin, and Cinc have asked which hereditarily decomposable chainable continua (HDCC) have uncountably many mutually inequivalent planar embeddings. It was noted, as per the embedding technique of John C. Mayer with the…

Suppose that $A$ and $B$ are closed subsets of a Euclidean space such that $A\cap B\neq\varnothing$, and we aim to find a point in this intersection with the help of the sequences $(a_n)_\nnn$ and $(b_n)_\nnn$ generated by the \emph{method…

Motivated by a question of R.\ Nandakumar, we show that the Euclidean plane can be dissected into mutually incongruent convex quadrangles of the same area and the same perimeter. As a byproduct we obtain vertex-to-vertex dissections of the…

We introduce the notion of a combinatorial $n$-od cover, for $n \geq 3$, which is a tool that may be used to show that certain continua embedded in the plane are not simple $n$-od-like. Using this tool, we generalize a classic example of…

In view of studying incompressible inviscid fluids, Brenier introduced in the late 80's a relaxation of a geodesic problem addressed by Arnold in 1966. Instead of inviscid fluids, the present paper is devoted to incompressible viscid…
